I haven't seen him or Hoist yet in the wild, as soon as I do, they're mine. Are there vehicle mode comparison shots with other Wheeljacks in the gallery?

Yes, with the original Generations Wheeljack: https://www.seibertron.com/transformers ... ck/4378/1/

Thanks. Group shots are my favorite parts of the galleries, I'll be checking out those the most. They help me organize my display shelves.

The traitourous and self-serving Decepticon STARSCREAM is the latest gallery for the new Transformers War for Cybertron Earthrise product line. Voyager Class Starscream takes many, many cues from his Transformers Classics mold from 2006, this version features a "more-or-less" cartoon accurate color scheme and additional points of articulation (such as ankle-tilts) and proper null-rays. However, it lacks proper landing gear and waist articulation! Regardless, it's still a great looking Starscream, let alone a great looking Transformers toy. The gallery shows comparison shots with the Henkei version of Starscream as well as the SIEGE version.

The Transformers War for Cybertron Earthrise products have been popping up at various retail chains like Walmart, Target and Best Buy throughout the past couple of months. Make sure to share your sightings with your fellow Seibertronians in our sightings section and sightings forums.

War for Cybertron: Earthrise Starscream (162 images) - Voyager Class

I prefer the starscream from the siege line. More articulate and possible. All of the seekers from that line... perfect

Up next are new galleries of Voyager Class Grapple and Deluxe Class Cliffjumper from this year's Transformers War for Cybertron Earthrise series. Both figures might be the best representations of either of these characters from the regular product lines (excluding Masterpiece). Grapple includes several accessories to recreate his look in the G1 cartoon, as does Cliffjumper who includes his giant glass gas blaster in addition to a set of skis to recreate one of his iconic moments. Both galleries include traditional shots as well as comparison shots for your viewing pleasure. Grapple's gallery includes images alongside his Constructicon "friends" and his buddy Hoist. Cliffjumper's gallery includes some comparisons with Titans Return Bumblebee and his Earthrise wave-mates.

This grapple seems to be nearly as hard to find as the previous one was.

Yeah, I've been able to find only Wheeljack from this wave.

Really? Yesterday, my local Walmart had a whole bunch of them and only two Starscreams.

I haven't seen any of the Earthrise voyagers locally. Not that I'm running around looking as often right now, but they were supposed to be out before the lock downs occured I believe.

I did find the first wave of deluxes though and the Astrotrain Earthrise version Leader.

Grapple's Photo gallery has singlehandedly sold me on never getting the Constructicons. Might have to look for those smaller alternatives.

That could be because they are 3 to a case with 2 Grapples and 1 Screamer.

As a kid, before transformers was part of my life, my 1st obsession was cranes. And when I saw the original G1 grapple in a shop window - I drove my parents nuts with my nagging and whining for it. He is still one of my favourite toys and characters, have my original and a reissue.

Have the MP which is excellent. One of my favourite mp's

Have the Generations figure which I never really liked - didn't care for the aesthetic (even though more than one reviewer mentioned it was nice g1-esque...) and certain pieces popped off.

Just received earth rise and got him out of the box - think this is what lot os us G1 fans hankered after - re interpretation of the original toy with modern engineering providing great articulation etc. Pity about the too large pegs issue otherwise he'd have been in my top 3 of siege released so far.

Also - bonus - no elastic tags keeping him in his plastic prison.

It's been a while for new galleries here on Seibertron.com, but that's about to change. Thanks to our friends at Hasbro, we've got the entire first wave of the highly anticipated Transformers War for Cybertron KINGDOM series. We weren't sure who to focus on first, but after reading comments on the Seibertron.com forums and messages from the Seibertron.com staff, it seems like Voyager Class Cyclonus was highest in-demand. So on that note ...

Behold! Seibertron.com's first gallery from the Transformers War for Cybertron KINGDOM series is none other than Voyager Class Cyclonus. This toy is probably the best rendition of him yet ... especially if you are a fan of the cartoon look for Cyclonus. He's a good size Voyager, taller than his case mate Optimus Primal from the same class size in Kingdom and comparable in size (but bulkier?) than recent Voyagers from the past couple of years. At a minimum, he has a lot more going on with his transformation and has a lot of great points of articulation including wrist, ankle, wrist, waist and multiple neck joints! His space jet mode is incredible -- all of his robot kibble disappears which gives it a very "mini-Masterpiece" like feel.

Cyclonus is the Unicron creation of dead Decepticon parts from the Transformers animted film from 1986. Bombshell? Skywarp? Who knows and who cares! Cyclonus is Galvatron's very loyal 2nd-in-command. He is the Decepticon's Ultra Magnus. He's awesome, needs more toys, and especially needs a Masterpiece toy after all of these years.

Our Cyclonus gallery includes comparison pictures with the rest of Kingdom's Wave 1 products. In addition, we pulled out all of the stops to include other comparison shots we thought you'd like to see with other versions of Cyclonus (Cyclonuses? Cycloni?) as well as comparisons with Transformers Universe Galvatron, Generations Scourge and even Titans Return Galvatron and Cyclonus. His Targetmaster partner Nightstick even makes an appearance!

Cyclonus and the other figures from this line are expected to hit retail in the next 4 to 8 weeks. When you get yours, be sure to share your thoughts. In the meantime, check out all 200+ photos of Cyclonus by clicking on any of the images below. His gallery includes all of the images you've come to expect from Seibertron.com over the years. Stay tuned for additional Transformers War for Cybertron Kingdom galleries throughout this Thanksgiving week! Let us know what you think of Cyclonus here in our discussion topic about this toy line.

War for Cybertron: Kingdom Cyclonus (210 images) - Voyager Class

Yay! Finally the galleries return!

Hmmm. That’s a nosecone transformation I haven’t seen before.

He looks pretty good. I wasn't too keen on him to start with, but this gallery is making him look like a winner. He'll be going on my TF:TM shelf most likely.

Hokutron wrote:Hmmm. That’s a nosecone transformation I haven’t seen before.

It uses the "accordion" transformation, which I think was introduced by my personal favorite Transformers Prime Robots In Disguise Deluxe Class Vehicon, and used rarely or few times since.

Definitely down for Cyclonus, glad I have him on preorder. Guess ol’ Reveal the Shield Cyclonus will go on the IDW shelf.

no shot next to Skywarp?

That appears to be Alternate Universe Optimus Prime floating in space judging from his bent antennae. I guess in his universe the Ark blows up on the way to Earth?

Emerje

The Golden Disk cards show one of three Destinies for the characters. That's just one of Optimus's three Destinies.

Very impressive transformation. No backpack outside of the wings which are supposed to be anyway.

The nosecone transformation is also very clever yes. Instead of telescoping needle nose like Universe, it splits down the middle and folds the needle in.

Very cool.

This of course makes it more confusing as to why he's in Kingdom and not SS86. He's got that level of detailed transformation and movie accurate robot mode. Not enough slots in SS to go around?

Kingdom would have had more G1 toys in it if not for Beast Wars sharing the same anniversary as TFTM. Kingdom also has Galvatron, Ultra Magnus, and Rodimus Prime in it too, as well as non-TFTM G1 guys like Warpath, Huffer, Pipes, Tracks, Slammer, Inferno, and rereleases of Arcee and Wheeljack.
